The Gorilla In Your House

This post is a VERY good analogy for living with chronic illness. I was pointed to it from a post on 4RATalk. And I found it to be good reading. It's so true that living with illness is like having a gorilla here. You can't ignore it completely....I mean really, who could ignore a gorilla sitting in someone's house? You do need to learn to live with it and not constantly fight it. It's not easy all the time. And sometimes even after learning to live with it....something happens and you have to adjust all over again. Like when the gorilla invites his friends over to party. Yeah that's always fun.
